    God places us where we are for a purpose, offering courage and guidance in uncertain times when we seek Him with prayerful trust and obedience.

    Good morning, friends. I’m glad you’re here. Some of us arrive today with a quiet ache, some with a smile that’s doing its best to hold steady, and some with a burden that feels bigger than our own strength. You are seen. You are welcome. And you are not alone. Have you ever felt cornered by a ...read more

    God invites us to surrender our old ways, receive a new heart, and experience true transformation through His Spirit and renewing our minds.

    Some mornings feel like reruns. Same burdens. Same battles. Same buttons being pushed by the same people. You wake up with good intentions, yet old habits hang on like heavy coats in summer. You want to change. You’ve promised to change. You’ve tried to change. Still, the mirror shows yesterday’s ...read more

    Friends, welcome. Pull up a chair in your heart and take a deep breath. Some of us walked in with a smile on our face and a storm in our soul.

    God meets us in our questions and ordinary moments, inviting us to respond in faith, obedience, and public confession through Jesus Christ.

    Some of the most beautiful moments in Scripture happen on ordinary roads. Dust on the sandals. Sun on the horizon. A heart with honest questions.

    Friends, grace to you. Maybe you carried in a bag of what-ifs and a bundle of weariness. God meets us here. Not with crossed arms, but with open hands. He knows the week you just had.

    God entrusts each of us with unique gifts and opportunities, calling us to faithful, courageous stewardship that honors Him and blesses others.

    Some mornings it feels like heaven has hung a “Help Wanted” sign over your heart. You sense it when you tuck in a child, when you clock in at work, when you linger over the needs of a neighbor. The King of the cosmos has placed something in your hands—time, talents, and treasures—and whispered, “I ...read more

    God’s grace meets us in our brokenness, offering forgiveness and restoration through Christ, no matter how far we’ve fallen or how flawed we feel.

    Some of us walked in today carrying a quiet ache. Maybe it’s a memory that won’t loosen its grip. Maybe it’s a habit that keeps hollering our name. Maybe it’s the nagging sense that we should be further along than we are. If that’s you, you’ve come to the right place. Not a museum for the perfect, ...read more
